MIGregB Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 OK... so I wanted to be sure you guys took a look at my question. My golf league has an annual end-of-season banquet where everyone has to bring a golf gift worth no more than $10 to use as prizes. (I suppose "gag" gifts are OK; but after my topic title, I'd rather not go there!! ) Most of us already have sleeves of inexpensive golf balls (that we mostly re-gift), tees/ball markers/divot tool packages and assorted trinkets. I'd like to come up with something different than the usual. Considering how vast the MGS community, I thought for sure there'd be some great suggestions. BTW, I have NO objections going over $10, but the league president wants to keep a lid if costs so no one gets embarrassed. But a little over isn't a big deal. So, what about it? Anything different come to mind??

mbrodeur86 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Good question. There isn't much you can get these days for $10 bucks related to golf that I can think of. Maybe a gift card from the pros shop?

Headhammer Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Do a search on Amazon for Golf Accessories under $10.

hckymeyer Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 For around $10 or a couple bucks more you could get a vacuum sealed insulated can koozie on amazon, it would at least be something different. I like the gift card to the pro shop or bar idea too. Depending how much over you can get away the SPY headcover keychains on MGS are $15 but I think you still have to pay shipping. https://store.mygolfspy.com/products/spy-headcover-keychain MIGregB, Stereotype and CudaKota66 3 Quote Driver: SLDR w/ Fujikura Ventus Black 3w: '16 M2 hl w/ Diamana D+ 82 5w: Launcher HB w/ HZRDUS Yellow Hybrid: 22 deg.

Golf2Much Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Great question. I have a couple ideas. Golfers often need replacement golf spikes for their shoes. For around $10 (maybe a couple of dollars more) at discount golf sites you can pick up replacements. Also, I found this to be useful: Softspikes multi wrench. It's $10 at Golf Galaxy. It includes not only the insertion wrench, but a sharp "ripper" cleat removal tool. It's very effective and helps in the toughest job when replacing cleats.

Brooky03 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 (edited) One of those 'switchblade' style divot repair tools comes to mind as an alright gift; bonus points if it includes a magnetic ball marker. Other than that, honestly, a sleeve a ProV1's isn't going to disappoint any golfer. Edited August 25, 2023 by Brooky03 CudaKota66 and MIGregB 2 Quote Link to comment
JimMLINY Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 14.95 a piece with 15% discount gets you close to $10 at $12.70. I ordered a few as a goof for upcoming charity outings. Shipping was very quick. Received within 3 days of ordering.

MIGregB Posted August 27, 2023 Author Share Posted August 27, 2023 Sorry for being absent. Bad storms in the area got me sidelined with traveling back home and some clean-up work. Thank you all for your suggestions, they've been very helpful!
